Im still exploring the area, and people in Vegas might say otherwise due to the pricing, but i like Blue Reef Aquatics. Also its on the way to Vegas for me, he's located pretty much at the border of NV/AZ/UT, called House of Sticks. I haven't visited them in person yet, but they have a lot of nice fuzzy sticks!

Had a chance to go to Denver this weekend, got an awesome deal on plane tickets from Vegas, $97 round trip including the luggage fee and tax.

Went to 10 different LFSs in/around Denver, had a blast.

Excuse the micro bubbles, the skimmer is going nuts due to the epoxy in the system. I hope you guys like it.

Looking good :)

If I ever decide to upgrade my 60g cube, it'll be to something somewhat similar. 60"x30"x18" is what I'm thinking. Likely in a peninsula style configuration.

I'd guess, based on the 'look' of that tank, that your local folks got it from Planet Aquarium in Texas. I've seen several of their systems, look very much like yours. If I order one, it'll likely be from them.

Thanks Rex!

I scored 15 frags/colonies during this trip, but i paid for 2 of them :rolleyes: ; Oregon Tort and ORA PearlBerry. The rest is from my buddy...

The best store in town is called Aquatic Art in southern Denver, here is their site. But i kinda doubt that they upload a lot of stuff in stock on their site...

Thanks! As for the tank, I was told that the tanks was made and delivered from So Cal. I would like the dimensions you are thinking too! It would be really close to my dream tank..
